Shinar in the Bible

The key references to Babel:

1 "And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Arach, and Achad, and Chalanne in the land of Sennaar."
[Genesis 10:10]

2 "And when they removed from the east, they found a plain in the land of Sennaar, and dwelt in it."
[Genesis 11:2]

Other verses which could explain where it was:

3 "And it came to pass at that time, that Amraphel king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Pontus, and Chodorlahomor king of the Elamites, and Thadal king of nations,"
[Genesis 14:1]

4 "To wit, against Chodorlahomor king of the Elamites, and Thadal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Pontus: four kings against five."
[Genesis 14:9]

5 "And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand the second time to possess the remnant of his people, which shall be left from the Assyrians, and from Egypt, and from Phetros, and from Ethiopia, and from Elam, and from Sennaar, and from Emath, and from the islands of the sea."
[Isaias (Isaiah) 11:11]

6 "And the Lord delivered into his hands Joakim the king of Juda, and part of the vessels of the house of God: and he carried them away into the land of Sennaar, to the house of his god, and the vessels he brought into the treasure house of his god."
[Daniel 1:2]

7 "And he said to me: That a house may be built for it in the land of Sennaar, and that it may be established, and set there upon its own basis."
[Zacharias (Zechariah) 5:11]

In Daniel 1:2 we probably deal with a destination called Babylon. But how wide outside Babylon is Sennaar?

In Isaiah 11:11, we deal with a region excluding Assyria, which Mesopotamia does not.

In Zechariah 5:11 we deal with what is probably an end times vision. We probably don't yet know the location, and the flying scroll being a communication satellite is just one hunch on how it could be recently or come to be fulfilled. Probably, if so, the latter, since I don't know any comunication satellite having the exact measures of a volume flying: the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits.

Now, Isaiah's Shinar probably is Sumeria or classic Babylonia. Daniel's could be. Zechariah's could come to be.

But the issue, if original Shinar was all of Mesopotamia, the transition would be under reference 3 and 4: Amraphel residing in Sumer and claiming control, ineffectively, over all of Mesopotamia, hence his title./HGL
